Carmari
The ideal romantic getaway or cozy holiday spot for friends. Enjoy nature and beautiful views with little visitors of all shapes and sizes... rooi duikers, mongoose, amazing bird life and the tranquil water. Summer nights on the deck by your own private splashpool, cooler nights cuddle up by the inside fireplace. Ideally situated to explore all the Lowveld has to offer (Kruger Park, God's Window, Pilgrims's Rest, Sabie and more) or just stay put, soak up nature, get lost in a book and recharge. NOW this gem offers an invertor for running the basics during loadshedding/power cuts as well as gas water heaters.
I am not living on site, but always, anytime, just a text away. Love to share tips on places to see, things to do and where to eat😁
Its a quiet reserve located by the dam. Ideally located to visit Kruger National Park Park, Graskop Gorge Lift, God's Window, Potholes, Lisban Falls, Pilgrims Rest, Hazyview, Gin tasting, Waffle House, Adventure activities, local coffee roasting at Sabie Valley Coffee and much much more.
